Telecoms.com: Mobile WiMAX lands: Xohm out of the gates in Baltimore
For the 1.2 million citizens in Baltimore that are within the mobile WiMAX coverage area (the total Baltimore population is 1.7 million) they can now access the Xohm page, or visit one of a 'select number of retail outlets', to place their orders for either a Zyxel modem ($79.99) for the home PC, or a Samsung Express Air Card ($59.99) for their laptops.
Average downlink speeds will be between 3Mbps and 5Mbps, says West, with uplink speeds ranging between 1Mbps and 2Mbps. A much better mobile internet experience than what customers can receive from their traditional mobile service providers is central to the Xohm value proposition.
The Xohm network currently has a total of around 1,300 base station sites 'on air' across six markets: Baltimore, Washington DC, Chicago, Boston, Dallas-Fort Worth and Philadelphia. West expects Xohm to have a total of 2,000 base station sites on air, across these six markets, by the end of 2008.
